Use Neem oil spray — it is very effective. Word of warning, it does stink when you spray it, but the smell dissipates very quickly. 2-3 treatments (once per week) should be enough.

Black and white photo of a propeller sitting upright on the ground. A low brick wall and trees are in the background.

Decommissioned propeller (maybe).

Black and white landscape. There’s taller grasses and bushes in the foreground in the left corner, a stony creek bed winding through the center into the horizon with a small swath of water visible in the foreground on the right and center. There are constructed stone embankments bordering the creek bed. There’s a walking bridge and a set of stairs leading down the embankment at the point where the creek bed disappears from view. Distant trees constitute the horizon line.

Finally cooler weather for an autumn walk.
I am struggling with the limitations of black and white photography when capturing a busy landscape.

I am willing to live through layered polos and culottes again to avoid this. And I really hated both.

Black and white close-up of irregularly shaped water droplets spread in a divot of a leaf.

Recent rains gave an opportunity to do some leaf close-ups

Black and white photo of a cloudy sky with a small sliver of building roofs at the bottom of the picture.

Stepped away to feel microscopic in the big picture of things.

Black and white photo looking through a metal barrier onto water with a duck swimming through. The duck is framed in on the squares of the barrier. The upper left corner is occupied by the sun shining through.

Vaguely industrial areas are so fun to photograph

Black and white photo of branches with small wilting white flowers, seen between two diagonal, out-of-focus dark opacities along the top right and bottom left corners

Peeking through — a happy accident within a poorly centered shot.

Black and white photo of a small pothos plant in a pot. Loose soil scattered around the pot — it has just been planted.

The stars aligned — day off, sunshine, desire to finally plant my rooted cuttings.
